Local TV station's anchors quit on-air after evening news broadcast

Anyone who has been fed up with salary, management or other issues that have made a job unbearable has surely dreamed of a "take-this-job-and-shove-it" moment. For most, though, news of the moment likely wouldn't make it outside the workplace walls. That wasn't the case for a TV news anchor duo in Bangor, Maine, who quit their jobs in front of thousands of viewers at the end of Tuesday evening's newscast. In what was reportedly inspired by a conflict with upper management, co-anchors Cindy Michaels and Tony Consiglio announced to viewers that it would be their last show, the Bangor Daily News reported. The news anchors shared more than 12 years of experience working for WVII and sister station WFVX, according to the Daily News. "Some recent developments have come to our attention ... and departing together is the best alternative we can take," Consiglio told viewers.

Thumbs up for the classic way of telling them to take this job and shove it.
